What they're doing is aligning to schedule each other for better games because of the fact that many of the P6 conferences have gone to 20 conference games. To me, in effect, it's going to end up creating a tier of schools below the P6 that end up trying not to schedule the lowest tiered conferences. All this because the NCAA and their selection committee continue to be unwilling to require some form of scheduling mandates to P6 schools.

Smart for the alliance though to get quality wins. Then again, don't schedule them and beat them on "guarantee win games" by your power members of said group, you can skew the math in a hurry.

A highly paid coach will go a long way toward perception of a program which means more revenue and better recruiting. The schools that have broken out in the past few decades like Xavier and Gonzaga had great coaching, then high profile profile recruits coming in behind it. These scheduling alliances aren't going to make a difference if the coaching is not there.

They also invest a ton of money into hoops (UC and Memphis especially). I guess my point is that I don't think they aren't really mid-majors in the same way that the teams using this alliance are. First I am told that a non-power conference team can't have football if they want to be successful in basketball. Then I cite examples of G5 programs with highly successful basketball programs. Next I am told they are different because they invest a lot of money into hoops. What I said originally then holds if a program follows a model of investing in a good coach its possible. A coach that immediately has the team playing better defense, over achieving with current talent and in play for higher level recruits. Defense is key because it allows a program to take care of business night in and out during conference play which is what a mid major program has to do for a NCAA tournament resume. I'd be happy with a program that on the schedules we play could win 25 a year, finish with no more than 2 or 3 conference losses and was in the NCAA tournament regularly. That seems about right for this basketball program not 14-17 finishes on the 300th rated schedule.

Right here is a list of 30 schools that showed up at least once in those decades (some a few times) with a 1st or 2nd team All American meaning that they had one of the very best players in the entire country.

I once worked with a guy who picked up his PhD at Bradley years ago. He said he loved the Braves but they can't get the players anymore. It was a program that dropped off the map in the late 80's while others like UC and Temple struck gold with televised college basketball. Cincinnati had football and they were able to get into CUSA and later the Big East. Dayton at times a more impressive program had to settle for the A10, a conference mostly populated by programs from yesteryear. The AAC is up and coming metro schools plus private schools that kept FBS football. Maintaining a football program regardless of how bad it is was key.

Not even worth going into it as discussing and debating would be folly. Have a great day. I agree with what you are saying here to a large extent. The current power schools of today even back in 1960 had 75% of the total market value of college basketball. Over the course of time, they leveraged their natural advantages as major land grant universities and larger alumni bases to sculpt the system in their favor. The NCAA tournament expanded in a way to benefit the high resource conferences. Playing non-conference games only at home. Refusing to play other in-state schools at all ect. Today the power schools have 90-95% of the market value of college basketball.

As an example USF and Jacksonville both founded the Sun Belt Conference in 1977. USF decided to start an FBS program which allowed them to get into CUSA and later the Big East and AAC. Jacksonville without the FBS program is now competing in the low major Atlantic Sun basketball conference. Did football hurt USF's basketball aspirations or was it the key to keeping them relevant? Another case is Long Beach State, a football and basketball member of the Big West back when that conference had a national power in UNLV. They decided to drop football and stay in the Big West while San Jose St keeping football was invited to the WAC and eventually the MWC. Had Long Beach St kept football they could have been in the MWC today. Dropping football hurt Long Beach St. stay relevant in athletics. Much of the football dropping when it occurs is the result of a facility issue to be able to compete and not driven to conserve resources for other sports.
